Idea Simple Manned Rockets

[NSEP]

Hello peeps :tiphat:! I really like the Delta-Glider's, controls, look and how simple it works. But i really feel like a rocket (like the mercury rocket) with about the same level of controls and buttons, features, look and simplicity should be in the game, or at least a good working add-on for orbiter 2016. Thanks for reading :thumbup:.

Doggerland? Planning to revive Sea Dragon as launcher?

There is no such simple capsule+rocket vessel in Orbiter now, but it would be no problem to design and create one. I easily second the call there.

I work on a New Shepard right now, but this lacks the manual controls that you would expect in a DG analog.

If you want to get one I can only give you one hint: Clearly defining the requirements you have is about 80% of creating an add-on. See here for some hint how good requirements should be like:

You are working on a New Shepard? Awesome!

Well, Donamy does 99% of the work. I just do C++ coding when my employer lets me go home. :lol:

Still, as said above: Its not comparable to a DG. Not orbital. Not much manual control. No pilots.

Oh well, its still good that you work on it. But its still a rocket, so thats cool!
